hi
i shared a folder on my computer to be access on the network. the
localcomputer name is host1. the forlder is for example \\host1\folder1 . i
want to access this folder from my local computer. when i'm connected to
network i can accesss it. but when the network is unplugged i can access
this folder using this address . if i access \\host1 i can see shared
folders on my pc but when i want access \\host1\\folder it says i don't have
premission to access the shared resource . is there a way to access local
shared folder using its network address (\\host1\folder ) while not
connecting to the network

thanks
Hamid

OT, but why not just access it on the hard drive directly in Explorer, since
you're on that local computer?
